“...... No, we can't just run away. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Ed held his head, his weak voice almost like a dying moan.

He resisted the panicked screams in his head and tried to convince himself: "This will be more difficult to explain later......"

"Explain?" the ice dragon tilted his head and glared at him, scoffing at his usual innocence, "How are you going to explain?"

It poked Scott on the ground with its tail: "He put the fire." Even if you don't see it, you think those elves can't guess it? They're not stupid enough to do that!"

Ed was speechless.

It was indeed Scott who set the fire - a responsibility that cannot be shirked in any way. Is he going to tell a group of angry elves that "this is just an accident"? even if he is still a righteous sage of the god of water, this reason may not be acceptable to the elves...... Besides, he is nothing now.

If he is convinced that they are not discovered, Ed suspects that he will choose to flee as well. But an ice dragon falling from the sky is hard not to be seen, and there is a faint fear in his heart - Norvi's appearance here may not be "accidental".

Once they flee with a weak heart, who knows what kind of "truth" will come into the ears of the elves...... He fears that what awaits them will not be "unexplainable", but that there will be no more opportunities for explanation.

“...... I stay. ”

When cornered, he always makes a quicker decision, "Ish, you have to take Scott away." Can't go back to Stamp Butch, not now...... Do you remember the last time we left the Empty Court, the temple of the god of water? The clergy there have all been transferred to Ston Butch, and the gatekeepers won't stop you...... Try not to be spotted, stay there and watch Scott until he ...... Return to normal, or at least guarantee that he won't set fires everywhere. Filly will be coming to you soon, he knows what to do...... I'll get to you as soon as I can. ”

-- If all goes well.

He silently added.

"Do you need me to warn you, those elves are even more stubborn than the dwarves!" the ice dragon shaved the ground and snorted at him angrily, "and the elven king who will probably barely believe you...... Now it's hard to protect yourself!"

It thinks Payne Silverleaf might be dead...... But Ed seemed to admire the silvery guy so much that he could only try to be tactful.

It did not fly south unprepared. Eren tells it about the different crises of the two different races across the river, and suspects that they are not unconnected.

"That's why I should stay. Ed insisted, propped his hands on the wings of the ice dragon's nose, trying to look his friend in the eye to make himself look more determined—unfortunately, as the dragon's head grew larger, he could only stare at one of its eyes.

"I know it's hard to explain. He held back the sudden smile that came up in this somewhat serious atmosphere, and finished his words with a serious face, "But at least, I may have a chance to enter the empty court again—maybe it's the only chance! Even if I can't meet the Silver Leaf King, I may be able to meet his uncle...... The people out there don't know anything about what happened to Grivar, and maybe I'll get more information there—they're not going to kill me anyway, are they?"

“...... Idiot, you'll be eaten by them to the point where you don't even have a bone left!" The ice dragon couldn't help but push a little harder, knocking the fool in front of him to the ground, and he couldn't wait to step on it a few more times.

Even if they didn't blatantly put him on the fire as punishment, the selfish and cunning elven elders who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years would definitely not let Ed go easily...... He wouldn't even know how he died.

But it understands that once a decision has been made, Ed is very difficult to stop. Moreover, it was not here to stop him...... Especially when he didn't make the wrong choice.

Escaping is an easier way, but it will only lead to more trouble. Ed never shirks his responsibilities, and it is here to stand by him, to help him, to support him, just as he and Narya have traveled across entire countries and vast ice fields to find it, just to show it that it is not alone.

"One day!"

It said viciously, "You haven't been in front of me after a day...... I'm going to let Grivar's other half be completely frozen without being burned bald!"

It's a little hard, but it's not impossible to do - it's very serious.

"Uh......" Ed crawled up with its jaw, hesitated, and began to bargain, "Three days? You know how elves talk around the bush ......"

"One day. The ice dragon repeated coldly.

“...... Two days!" Ed held out two fingers, "Is, I've got to get some news!

The ice dragon grinded his teeth and resisted the urge to bite through.

"Two days. "It's compromised, but it's not reassuring.

"Take this. It rolled up Celebrian's staff and shoved it into him, "Maybe it can summon that half-elf...... Be careful, and when you need to do it, you must not be soft-hearted...... What about the brooch?"

Ed didn't say a word, his dark blue eyes rolling around on a face that was so black and gray mixed with sweat that he couldn't see his true face.

“...... Never mind. It said, "I'll go and save you." ”

Ed grinned and leaned on its nose as he relaxed.

The dragon's scales were cold and smooth, soothing his soul that had been tormented for a long time by all kinds of doubts, restlessness, confusion, and restlessness. In a few months, Isis seems to have grown up a lot...... In the past few years, they have always been together less and more away, and the dream of adventuring around with friends has become so far away unconsciously...... There may never be a chance to make it happen.

"You smell like a stinking piece of barbecue. The ice dragon sneezed in disgust, and a gust of cold wind dispelled the sudden sadness.

Ed laughed, clenched his cane, and straightened up.

"Go, Is. He said, "Don't worry...... It's best not to get into a fight with Scott. ”

"If he doesn't do it first. The ice dragon said coldly.

But it grabbed Scott with a cautious and almost gentle movement.

Ed watched them go away in amazement, until the dragon's figure turned into an indistinguishable light among the white clouds, and his heart was empty, and he suddenly regretted it.

He didn't wait long. As the elven warriors stepped over the ashes and stood in front of him with gloomy faces, Ed took a deep breath and tried to wipe his face clean with his sincerest apologies and most sincere smiles.

"I'm Ed Singh. "I know it's hard to believe...... But it was really an accident. ”
